In the savegame, the UFO STR_VESSEL_GOVT_CRUISER is not using the faction listed in the Govt.rul's Alienmission and it is spawning a faction outside of the list used. Specifically Ethereal. An alien faction, not human faction. Please investigate why this is so.

Please find attached a screenshot and saved game.

STR_FACTION_RETALIATIONGOVTPATROLPRIRATZ is a retaliation mission (objective: 4).

It was triggered when you shot down some other ufo with Ethereals onboard.

Retaliation missions triggered from dogfight get their race from the shot down ufo, not from `raceWeights`.
